gfhockey Posted February 12 Posted February 12 Per source chaves quietly extending bubba 3 years Danny went in to meeting with them expecting chaves bubba to let Danny know bubba will be retiring and he will be named successor and he was blind sided with the plan they wanted to put in place. Danny was more scared about having a bad year this year and everyone getting canned if they didn’t perform so elected to go with the safe money 1 Quote

Oxbow6 Posted February 12 Posted February 12 I've already contacted the REA on cutting back on my # of FB tickets. I really don't want to cut back to zero but an extention might prompt that. Not that anybody couldn't get tickets on gamedays anyways. 4 Quote

As of Feb 7th, he hasn't been extended. His last extension was signed Feb 23rd, 2022, so I'm not saying gfhockey is wrong, just that it hasn't happened (yet?). Quote

nodak651 Posted February 12 Posted February 12 I'd be fine with it if at the same time they slashed the buyout. Quote

They basically said 3 years more of terrible Bubba ball is better than hiring younger talent (Danny) as head coach. They screwed the future up for this football program and are going to start over in the 3 years after bubba runs it even farther into the ground!!! 3 Quote

They basically said 3 years more of terrible Bubba ball is better than hiring younger talent (Danny) as head coach. They screwed the future up for this football program and are going to start over in the 3 years after bubba runs it even farther into the ground!!! First, consider the source. It definitely seems to be more sensationalized from any of the versions I've heard. The end result was likely best for everyone in the long run, even if it meant losing the OC. And before the random arguments come up, I'm not saying that I think losing the OC was good for the very near future. Also, no clue if there is an actual extension in the works (even though some have decided it is apparently already done since its been brought up for the last two months). Even if there is, as was already stated, it doesn't mean anything until we see the actual details of what would be in any sort of extension. If it is a multi-year extension with full buyout, that's significantly different than an extension in years only with an easy buyout for UND that on the surface shows long-term stability to help with recruiting, which these days includes new recruits and keeping your own players on your team. 1 Quote
fightingsioux4life Posted February 12 Posted February 12 I am not buying this until I see the press release or someone like Tom Miller says he has a source that says Bubba is being extended. 1 Quote
